Anyone out there playing Xbox live?

Dylan, Paul, anyone?

I've been playing video games since I was a kid, and my offspring have proved that it's in our gene structure with endless hours of lab testing....heh

I wonder why my name comes up first? :)

Nah, I'm a PC gamer for life, although I did buy one of those mini PSONEs with the LCD screen to take with me while travelling and camping. My favorite console will always be the Intellivision though.

I used to be addicted to Counterstike, and I had to quit video games cold turkey to get over it. Now I just play a little Tony Hawk and some Unreal Tournament 2003, but no more online play for me. Too addictive.

yea......

IMO, CS killed so many other good games out there.
It' also brought out the scrip kiddies in droves........

Check me out here when I was "addicted" to the Valve engine.
I still drop in with an alias now and again.....shhhh

You had too much free time too, huh? :)

I started playing CS back in beta 4.2 or 4.5, before the Aug existed, and when the Colt still had a scope. I stopped playing just before they integrated live voice into the game. All on my P2-233 getting 6-15 FPS. At least I had cable, not dialup.

I played as the_klenzer, much of the time with clan I-5.

I've got 1.5meg cable, and they just made 2meg available in the last month or 2. A couple of years ago, I ran CAT-5 all through the house so the whole family could be connected.......

If we didn't have cable or DSL here I would have moved....j/k

Here are the "live" games we have for future reference.
Moto GP (Live and full version)
NFL Fever 2003
Ghost Recon

We play Moto GP the most........

Put us on your friends list: Team KoRn

I'm rider #2 on our team. Rider #1 is my oldest son.

Because we are kids at heart! I am with Dylan and prefer to play games on my computer. The resolution is so much better. Plus there is a larger audience to play against. I was also a Counterstrike addict. A sad, sad tale.

Now I am playing a lot of Warcraft III. Great game.

I am from the communications world, so my house is also fully networked. We are running gig ethernet and it is smoking fast. My kids and I have a blast playing.

If anybody out there plays Warcraft, let me know. Always looking for a good game.
